The acquisition of novel genetic traits by natural competence is a strategy used by bacteria in microbe-rich environments including animal or human hosts where microbial...

The proposed experiment involves measurement of the structural changes during the ferroelectric rhombohedral to antiferroelectric orthorhombic phase transformation in PZT...

Advanced steels have been studied aiming at realizing higher strength with high toughness by microstructural control, minimizing the use of alloying elements. Grain refinement...

The aim of this experiment is to characterise the effect of dilution on the residual stresses in multiple-pass welds produced with specially designed filler alloys that exploit...

The object of this proposal is to determine, by using neutron diffraction, the nature of the polyamorphic phase transition that occurs in glassy GeO2 with increasing pressure....

No diffraction studies have specifically aimed to study the (hkl) specific strain in polycrystals under the application of pure shear. A technique is proposed that has been...

Previous experiments at ENGIN-X (Wenk et al. 2007) established that quartz rocks undergo mechanical twinning if stressed above 100 MPa. The amount of twinning is highly...

Deformation-induced martensite formation is a thermo-mechanical phenomenon whereby the transformation of the austenite phase into martensite occurs above the martensite start...

A future hydrogen economy requires dense, safe, efficient and reversible hydrogen storage materials [1]. For mobile and in many cases also for stationary applications the...

It has recently be demonstrated, through diamond-anvil cell experiments, that it may be possible for methane to be formed within the inner Earth through transformation reactions...

This proposal intends to investigate two ideas relating to TRIP steels in one experiment. Firstly, in-situ cooling under constant elastic stress will be performed to determine...

Yttria-stabilised polycrystalline zirconia ceramics (Y-TZP¿s) possess a unique combination of properties that make them attractive for dental prosthetic applications: strength,...

The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with...

The mechanical properties of of austenitic stainless steels are thought to be improved by the phenomenon of deformation-induced martensitic transformation, which acts to...

These measurements are aimed to identify the chemical and metallurgical characteristics of some highly alloyed steel samples , heat treated and/or cold rolled.The experiment is...

This table provides a summary of predominant approaches to resilience. Reviewing resilience in this manner lays out the overlapping interpretations of resilience and sheds light...

This dataset is the result of the multicountry study, 'Engendering Forced Migration, Socio-political Transition and Mental Health in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Kosovo'....
